I use a dip belt and like it a lot. If using backpacks they annoy me once you have any decent weight in them they dig into the shoulders. The belted weights also naturally fall inline with your body more. The most taxing exercise I do is weighted negative only dips on rings.

I also like to squeeze the plates between my legs and partially lift the plates with my knees/legs, seems to give me more power for chins.

Gymnastic rings & a dipping belt is the greatest combination since beer and pizza!

So does the belt make s difference in chest and triceps?
